Commenced to over-race for a short distance leaving the 1500 metres and threw its head in the air. Shifted out near the 300 metres to obtain clear running and inconvenienced another runner.

The start was delayed when the gelding proved very difficult to load. Trainer was advised that a warning will be placed on the barrier manners of the gelding.

Steward Comment

Shortly after the start, when being restrained from its wide barrier, commenced to race ungenerously and lost considerable ground. When questioned rider stated that the intention was to settle the horse in the back half of the field, however the mare resented being restrained. Trainer was reminded of his obligation to advise stewards of any change to riding tactics compared to the horse’s previous start.
